For this edition of Saturday Anime Night, we’re starting early, at 6:30PM, to honor the late Akira Toriyama by watching two selections from his magnum opus. First is Dragon Ball: Curse of the Blood Rubies (1986), the first Dragon Ball movie; it is a condensed, alternate retelling of the first arc from the show. An evil king seeks the Dragon Balls to wish away his insatiable hunger for food, and Goku and the gang have to stop him. After that we will watch Dragon Ball Z, ep. 125, in which Goku and Piccolo go to driving school. It is one of the show’s most beloved episodes, and probably the most famous of all the anime-only eps.
After that, since the people demanded more Sailor Moon, and so, we’re continuing on, with episodes 55 through 60 of the 1992 series, the definitive magical-girl anime. This is the completely unabridged, unexpurgated, uncensored, Japanese version of the show, including everything that the English dub butchered, altered, and/or cut, which is quite a bit. Tonight’s episodes see the conclusion of the anime-only Makai Tree arc of Season 2, and the debut of everyone’s favorite pink hellspawn, Chibiusa.
Last for the night is The First Slam Dunk (2022), the highly-acclaimed smash hit based on the phenomenally popular 1990 manga of the same name, about a scrappy high-school basketball time who earn a chance to win the national championship. Will they overcome their differences and show those big-city jerks what's what? I guess we'll find out. This was the best-reviewed anime film of 2022, and it finally released on Blu-Ray this week, so we're watching it.
We’ll start 6:30PM EST on Hextube, right here: https://live.hexbear.net/c/movies
Be there, comrades!
